Going Keto with Chicken Skewers In Peanut Sauce

Chicken Skewers with Peanut Sauce - Keto-Friendly

After Abigail and I cooked our deviled eggs, we decided to cook some chicken skewers! This recipe takes a little longer to prep but it is worth it! You can freeze the sauces for later so make sure to make a double batch of this!

Ingredients

2boneless skinless chicken breasts3/4 to 1 pound total

10wooden skewers soaked for about 30 minutes before using

1/2cupfull-fat coconut milk

3clovesgarlic minced

1/2teaspooncurry powder

1/2teaspoonground black pepper

1/4teaspooncayenne powder

1/4 cupcreamy peanut butter

3clovesgarlic minced

2tablespoonssesame oil

1tablespoonolive oil

1tablespoonsoy sauce

1tablespoonlime juice

Instructions

Take the skewers and soak them in water. This prevents them from burning in the oven.

Then cut up the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Take chicken pieces and put them in the bowl of marinade mixture. Put it in the fridge until you are ready to cook it. If you want the chicken to marinade well, leave it in the bowl for a minimum of an hour.

Next is the peanut sauce. In a separate bowl or pot, mix together the peanut butter, garlic, sesame oil, olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice and mix well. Place the pot of peanut sauce on the stove on low and stir occasionally.

Take the chicken back out of the fridge and begin putting the chicken on the skewers. Bake the chicken at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. Watch it so that it doesn't burn or cook too much.

Serve the skewers on the stick or place them on the plate with a bead of cauliflower rice and broccoli as your side. Place the peanut sauce on top of the chicken or dip it. Enjoy!
